so i have a crush on a sophomore and im a freshman. He hangs with my crew every morning when his friends are there. I usually get to school then he does. We are alone for about two min then everyone starts showing up. What do i do in that time were alone. Im a natural flirt and that doesn't seem to help as much as you may think. Like this morning we were talking about the weather. Like really, i want a real convo with him to get to know him better.

Hey girlie! Mornings can be a nice time to talk. Try to avoid dry topics like the weather, homework, or being tired. Instead, try to ask him good questions. If he plays a sport, ask him about it. Ask what he's doing this weekend, and if he doesn't have plans, ask if he'd want to grab lunch or go see a movie, or whatever other activity you might share in common. If you inquire about his interests, he'll be able to talk about things that matter to him, and you can really tell a lot about a person by how they talk about things they love best. Best of luck! xx

so I have a crush on this boy in my class and we text a lot and talk a lot in school.He says I'm his friend but we stare at each other and laugh together a lot. He keeps asking me who he should ask to this social we are having at the end of the year.I want him to ask me but my friend (who also likes him) wants me to tell him to ask her.What should I do?????

He may be asking you so you can say "take me!" Next time he asks, tell him to take you and if it doesn't work out, tell him your friend is interested. Good luck girl!

1. I need some help here. I don't know which guy I should choose! One of them is my age... But openly said he liked a different girl (after my friend asked if he liked me and he said yes then realized I was paying attention) I've liked him for 3.5 years
The second guy is four years older, and really funny. We are really good friends, he's prob my bgf. But I think he likes my sis! Should I keep crushing, or give up??!!
The third guy is 5 years older. He doesn't like me like that, but he's my really good friend. Should I give up on him??

2. I'm homeschooled and I HATE it. But my mom won't let me go to public school. She's not the one that teaches me. How do I convince her public school is better for me?

Okay so I have a big crush on my brother's best friend and drummer of his band! We've all been hanging out together recently but I'm not sure if Adam, my crush, sees me as a friend. I really want his number so I can text him but I don't have any reason (other than I really really like him) to ask for it. Help!!!

Hey girlie,

Instead of asking for his number at first, maybe you could hang out with him and get to know him as friends, and if you were friends it wouldn't be weird to get his number. You could hang out with your brother and him like you said and then talk to him when you're together, and ask him questions about what he likes to do and get to know him better. You might also want to consider telling your brother you like him since it's his friend, too!

This article was very helpful by the way. Thank you! But I think one of my guy friends are crushing on me. Each time he sees me, he tries to speak to me and is always around, helping me and all of that. I don't how I know that he likes but I can feel it. I think it's in his eyes. I like him, but just as a friend. I don't want to talk to him since if I'm wrong, it would make or friendship awkward, and I don't want that. I don't want to ignore or be cold to him, but I dunno what to do.
Thank you!

Hey girl, unless you're certain that he likes you, just continue treating him like a friend. Be careful to avoid flirtatious interactions and hopefully he'll get the message that you just think of him as a friend. If you're sure he likes you, pull him aside and have a private conversation where you tell him you just want to be clear that you don't think of him in a romantic way, but you're happy to be friends. Good luck!

I like this guy who is 2 years older than me. He is in the same grade as my brother, but they aren't friends. I don't know how, but the guy I like knows I'm my brother's sister. I have no idea how to talk to him. If I do, all his friends would probably laugh at me. I also have a best friend in his grade so would that help? How do I talk to him without being awkward?

hey! if you feel self-conscious around his friends, try to find a time when he's not surrounded by them and just say hi. Maybe ask your friend when a good time might be good luck!

MOD MOD MOD MOD!!!!!!!!!!! today me and this guy were passing notes and he wanted 2 know what i think of him i put ur some where between cute and weird (we're friends and say that kinda stuff all the time.) well he said rate me on a scale of 1-10 on cuteness and wierdness so i rated 6 and 5 so he kinda liked the answer but i told him 2 rate me and he said 6. i have been really happy ever since but he has a GF and i REALLY dont want her 2 find out what does any of this mean i am confused.P.S the teacher for that class pays nooooooo attention LOL.

Hey bethybooboo21, let this be the last time you guys flirt. You don't wanna be the cause of any relationship drama. Make it clear you just wanna be his friend. Hope this helps! Xoxo

Ok, so my I got my crush's phone number, but he doesn't really text me. I texted him hey, he said yo then I said what's up, and he never answered. The same ritual happened the next two nights. Does he not like texting or something? In person he will talk to me, but only if I start a conversation. He's kinda awkward. But I was wondering 1)if you know why he won't text me back 2) good conversation starters. Thanks a bunch!!!!

Hey Natazah, yeah I think your assumption is right. Some people just don't like texting, they prefer face to face interaction. So instead of texting, call him when you guys can't be together. I'm sure he'd like that a little more. For conversations, talk about what happened during the week, music, movies, friends, jokes, tv shows, or anything else you enjoy. Ask him about his interests if the convo gets dry. Hope this helps! Xoxo

Has anyone ever gotten a friend to give you the number of a guy you liked? I know my friend has the number of this really cute guy and I would love to talk and text him, we have seen each other in the halls and even even spoken but we never had to to let things go naturally. I dont want to seem desperate with him but I want his number, should I just ask my friend, the only problem is that she may like him too.

Are you and your guy meant to be? Select your sign first then his to find out if the stars see love in your future!
